Bugsy Segal, why have you forsaken us? In typical ComiXtreme fashion, one of the (ahem) "reviewers" fixates on whether "Caper" should be under the main DC umbrella, then forgets to actually review the book.

It looks as if he also neglected to do his homework, because he writes, "[Farel] Dalrymple is a new name to me."

But the high point comes from the informed follow-up exchange between a forum poster and said reviewer:

Poster: "Hmmmm, a Jewish Mafia. That does sound intersting [sic], but is there really any such beast?"

Reviewer: "I have no idea if it really exists, but like I said, it does give this book its only really unique twist. It opens the door for LOTS of stereotypes, though, and Winick falls into that trap on occasion."
